Year 5 Persuasive Writing

Hi fellow Year 5ers!
Has anyone got any advice on how best to plan the Year 5 Persuasive Writing Unit?
I can see that some people have used the FLS material - does anyone know if it is easy to translate this material into the New Framework 'Phases'?
Any other great ideas to help plan this unit?
Don't know why 'they' haven't exemplified all the units - it's not like we have to use their ideas!! More work for teachers!

Hamilton Trust have a good unit on keeping animals in Zoos and there is a year 5 booster unit somewhere on the standards site about animals in circuses. I've used both of these before although we always start with the FLS stuff.
We're only spending 3 weeks on it, haven't got the time to do the 5 or 6 that the new framework wants.
